BBC1 Radio Hackney Weekend

For me summer means 3 things..SUN, DENIM SHORTS & GLASTONBURY!

Now, in the absence of two of those this year I was on the lookout for an alternative festival to tickle my fancy. As a former resident of Hackney I was lucky enough to get my hands on a ticket for the much hyped Radio 1 Hackney Weekend! Through a touch of fate my sister had bought one for herself not knowing she couldn’t make it, although each ticket has a photo on I happen to look a lot like Claire (we did share a womb after all) so I breezed through the pretty militant security! I did have my new Alexander Wang shades to cover my face though.

I spent most of the day in the dance tent vibing out to some pretty commercial music. Not usually my thing but the crowd I was with were game, so I threw myself into it.

The highlight of the day HAS to be Jay Z! Now, a lot of friends had been to see him on his recent Watch the Throne tour and the usual response was ‘Wow, the best thing I have ever seen’. Not being the biggest hip hop fan I though this wouldn’t be for me but O-M-GEE it was good. Such a presence, and with Rhi Rhi, MIA and Kanye thrown in for good measure I must admit I was very, very impressed!!

I suppose I should talk about what I was wearing...

Jacket - Topshop - £60 (As seen in Vogue Magazine!) - Buy HERE
Dress - River Island - £35 - Buy HERE
Necklace - Ebay - £4.70 (Including Postage!!)
Hunters - (Everyone needs a pair of hunters for the festival season!!) - Approx £80+ - Buy HEREor HERE.

STATEMENT NECKLACE

I have been searching for a very long time, for the perfect statement necklace...but then this little beauty came into my life!!

I spotted it in Grazia magazine about a month ago from a website called Galibardy .  At £45 I was over the moon to realise i could actually afford it! Buy yours HERE.  My next purchase will defiantly be the gorgeous chain headdress...roll on pay day! 

Anyways, next Saturday I am off to the Hackney Weekend in London! I'm rather excited for the music, but even more excited to see what people are wearing! 

My first festival of 2012...BRING IT ON!

Cat-Eye

One thing that fashionistas and celebrities share is a mutual love for sunglasses. With so many brands, shapes and colour’s to choose from, it is impossible to be happy with just one pair!

At the moment, I am in love with the ‘Cat-Eye’ trend and these amazing sunglasses by Alexander Wang are the reason why.

I know what you’re thinking....”Cat-eye sunglasses are sooo last season!? Yes, they were big in 2011…but I promise you, they are even bigger this year!  The distinct shape of ‘cat-eye sunglasses’ has EXPLODED into 2012.

I spotted these sunglasses about a year ago, and they have been on my ‘wish list’ ever since!  At £216 they were not cheap, but I like to view them as an investment!  I bought them online from a website called ‘The Corner’.  Check them out HERE.

All I need now is some sun!!

BLACK MILK CLOTHING

Hey Guys,

So sorry about my little blogging break. I have been living it up in 'Sunny Bulgaria' celebrating my friends Hen do!  Basically I booked 4 days holiday but received 10 days off work!! (I LOVE the Jubilee).  I had the best time EVER - but now it's back to reality.

I thought I would share with you this amazing dress from Black Milk Clothing.  Ever since I came across this online store, I knew it was right up my street! Cool, Quirky and Unique....are just a few words to describe Black Milk Clothing.  This dress was not cheap, and set me back approx £65....but it is worth every penny!

Check out the collection - BLACK MILK CLOTHING

I am already planning my next purchase from the website..Hmm Decisions!

Love
